# nsc reservation cancel

Cancels a pending reservation.

`reservation cancel` cancels a pending capacity reservation before it has
been fulfilled. Once cancelled, the reservation stops waiting for capacity
and will never be assigned an instance.

Use `reservation list` to find the ID of the reservation you want to
cancel, or `reservation describe` to confirm it is still pending before
cancelling it.

## Usage

```bash theme={null}
nsc reservation cancel <reservation_id>
```

### Example

```bash theme={null}
nsc reservation cancel rsv_8f3k2m9p1q
```

## Options

`reservation cancel` has no options.
